Since the “ocean” on maps is gener- ally a neutral shade of -either blue or igreen, a frosting of the desired hue is spread over the entire cake. Over this is placed a piece of paper out of which have been cut the contours of the con- tinents of North and South America. This is done as follows: Place a plece of thin paper over a map of the right gmpnnlom and trace the continents. This thin paper, if not a tissue paper, will serve as the stencil for the colored con- fections of diminutive size which are used to fill in the space where the con- Colored coconut, wee sllver candy balls or fondant pressed through a pastry tube are a few of the palatable substances which com- pose the “continents.” So_easy to draw are the outlines of the North and South American Conti- nents that they may be done freehand on paper, following the outlines of the | large map if & small one is not at hand. . Little dots of colored candies may be used to designate citles if a fondant outline of the continents is the host- ess’ choice. There are many interesting variations of this scheme, which makes “globe cake” an addition to the holi- day menu. (Copyrisht, 1920.) DAILY DIET RECIPE ORANGE WHIPPED CREAM. Gelatin, one teaspoon.

AND another United States Senator has been added to the list of those who may go down to the sea in boats ‘whenever they choose. But it's a pretty safe bet that Henry ‘Wilder Keyes will never go. In the first place, the Senator is a native of Vermont, an inland State, and if he is a good sailor it has never bewen re- corded. Then there is the matter of the boat -— hardly would he venture far in such a craft. As a matter ‘of fact, Senator Keyes is rather put to it as to just what he will do with his boat. And while he is trying ‘o reach a decision his friends on the Hill are enjoying the situation not a Iiile. It came about this way: Senator Keyes' wife is Frances Par- kinson Wheeler, a writer and traveler: of fame. She traveled extensively this Summer, and one of the places she visited was the capital city of Vene- zuela. Mrs. Keyes has long made it her prac- tice to collect souvenirs in those places which she visits. Not just a mere trinket, but something typical of the section itself. In Venezuela she set out Wwith this idea in mind. President Gomez was her friend. She appealed to him for aid. He told her that she might visit any of the museums and if something could be found there ‘which appealed to her she could have it In vain did she look for something that appealed to her. Finally she re- turned to Gomez, told him of her diffi- culty and made the request that he gfick out something that would enable er to remember his country. He agreed. And Mrs. Keyes left him to prepare for her departure. The token was to be forwarded to her in event the President was unable to make a choice before she left Venezuela. It didn’t take Gomez long. Just be- fore she left Mrs. Keyes was told there ‘was a gift at her hotel from the Presi- dent of Venezuela. She went down to Teceive it. Four native Venezuelans ted her. ‘They were carrying on their ks a na- tive canoe—a boat fashioned by hewing the center out of a big log. About the busiest man in Washington Tecently has been young Teddy Roose- velt, selected to go to Porto Rico as governor. A careful survey of conditions on the island was made by a research organi- zation, and the colonel spent long ;\olgs familiarizing himself with the acts. Col. Roosevelt’s stay in Washington ‘was the signal for renewed comment oh the devotion that Alice Roosevelt Long- worth has for the two Roosevelt boys— ‘Theodore and Kermit. “Princess Alice” is their half-sister, ‘When her father married Edith Carew, the latter took much care as the family a grew to see that pretty curly-] led Alice and her own children -gould ‘raised as one family of closely bound brothers and sisters. And to this day there is no more mu- tual admiration existing between any brother and sister than that affection between “Princess Alice” and Col. ‘Teddy. ‘The last time that a man of Ramsay Macdonald’s rating and distinction was the house guest of the President of the United States was back in 1860.

C. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1929. BRIDGE TALKS BY MRS. JOHN MUNCE, JR. In the discussion of bidding, up to this point we have been largely con cerned with what might be generically called the informing bids, which place the value of each hand and hav« been Jargely confined to the first round in the bidding. It now seems to be the time and the place to take up the ques- tion of advancing bids, or so-called “raises,” it being presupposed that both hands of each pair of partners have indicated their value in the first round, and they have now reached the point in the second or succeeding round of ad- vancing the contract to make the bid which is best suited to the two hands combined. ‘The question is often asked pointedly, “What constitutes a raise?” To an- swer this it is first necessary to again lay down the fundamental that any raise or advancing of a bid presup- poses normal support, and it does not seem to me to be out of place to rej what' constitutes normal support. In & no-trump bid it is two tricks; in a suit bid it is three small cards of the suit bid, or two cards of the suit bid, one of them the king or ace or the queen and Jjack, plus one quick trick. Therefore, any advancement of the partner’s bid must represent tricks in excess of nor- mal support. ‘The situations which arise in this ad- vancing of your partner's bid assume that there is no justified assertive bid in the hand and that there is no reason for making a denial bid in the hand. In other words, that the hand will be of direct assistance to the bid named by partner. As is customary, we will begin the discussion with the advancing of a partner’s no-trump bid. The situations which arise under this are, first, where dealer has bid cne no trump and an intervening bid has been made; and, secand, when dealer has bid one no trump second and third hands 3 and the fourth hand has made an in- tervening bid and dealer passes; that is, does not increase his own bid. 1In the first situation, where there has been an intervening bid following a no- trump bid by dealer, there is one fun- damental essential if the partner of the dealer is to advance dealer's bid, and that is that he must have the suit bid by the intervening bidder safely X in other words, one certain trick in that suit plus normal support. For ex- example, dealer bids one no trump, sec- ond hand two clubs, and third hand holds the following: Spades—Ace. 8. 6. Hearts—Jack. 5. Dismonds—Queen, Jack, 8, 7. Clubs—King, 5, 3. In this d there is a trick in clubs in the king, snd a quick trick in the ace of spades, as well as high cards with which one mirAt reasonably expect to win tricks, ir e queen and jack of diamonds. refore, with the holding after a t™» ¢lub bid by an opponent, you should’ raise your partner’s bid of one no ®ump to two no trump. It should D€ remembered here that if part- ner has normal support and an extra trick, but no certain trick in the inter- vening suit, he should double the suit bid and not advance his partner’s bid. To illustrate, dealer bids one no trump, second hand two clubs, and third hand holds the following: Spaces—Ace. Hearts—Kin Diamonds— Clubs—$, 3. With the above holding, after part- ner's bid of one no trump and an in- tervening bid of two clubs, third hand should double. By this double he tells his partner he has strength in the other suits. Your Baby and Mine BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED. ueen, Jack, 8, 7. Mrs. H. W. writes: “I have two small daughters, 5 and 7. I want them to love each other and be pals, but they quarrel so much. I am trying hard to teach them to stand by each other. The oldest has an affectionate disposi- tion and the younger one hasn't. The oldest is easily led by other children and very seldom plays what she wants to, but always does as the others dic- tate. “Should I teach her to slap back when she is slapped? She never does; just runs and cries. I wish she had more spirit. It makes her sulky and unhappy when children talk ugly to her and make her take minor parts in their play. How can I help? “The younger one is quiet and doesn't care much to play with other children, but she asserts her rights, for she won't play unless she can have her own way. “Sometimes when the older one wants to love her she pushes her away and tells her to leave her alone. She refuses all help with her dressing. How can I help them to be loving and kind to each other?” Answer—This is a large order, and one impossible to fill. No one can tell you how to make your children over; neither can you tell at this age what your children will be when grown. You are expecting adult attitudes and vir- tues of them now. There is every chance that these sis- ters will be affectionate and compan- ionable, though. Their dispositions fif well ther—one girl affectionate and easily led, the other independent and dominating. All you can do as their mother is to give them both affection and endeavor strenuously to keep them from showing partiality to this older child, who evidently arouses your sym- pathies more than the younger. think you would do better not to courage this tendency in yourself. you give the older one the idea that she is in need of sympathy, that she al ‘ways has to play the minor roles, th: she doesn’t stand up for herself, you are giving her a large chip to she may never lose. Instead, hide your sympathy and encourage her to take her own part. Tell her that she must try to think up interesting games, so the children will want to do what she would like to. To help her in this, sitmulate her imagination by reading her good uwm"n;g’ helping aer hu; learn new and af lve games to play. The chil- dren will listen to her suggestions if she has something interesting to offer, and you can help her in this way unob- trusively.

MOVIES AND MOVIE PEOPLE BY MOLLIE MERRICK. Special Dispatch to The Star. B HOLLYWOOD,, Calif, October 8 (N.AAN.A).—If you've by any chance been invited to “Little Tooting,” you have some faint idea how a portion of the British colony in Hollywood main- tains its entity. If you haven't—and that's your loss—Ilet me tell you some- thing about it. A bungalow cou! ne block from the heart of the vill main street, bears the modest sign “Little Tooting,” and houses as interesting a group of his majesty’s subjects as one may find in this polyglot vicinity. ‘There are in Hollywood highly colored Russian clubs, where food is purveyed to the members at small cost and to visiting friends and tourists at a slightly higher cost; where flaming walls vibrate to music that once had heat and vigor, but is become casual from nightly strumming; where the temperamentals sip boulevard vodka (which, believe me, is & weird brew) and consume large sandwiches of pressed caviar. And there are various other semi-commercial na- But “Little Tooting" has none of these factors. It is home for a group of writ- ing people and actor-men who do not readily assimilate the apartment quality of this locale. One tiny white bungalow houses Lionel Belmore, that splendid actor who was a friend of Sir Herbert Tree in his London theater days. He bolsters up more ailing talkies with his healthy presence than perhaps any actor in the colony.

Lawford Davidson, adjudged the most perfect voice in the profession, served beefsteak and kidney pie and chiffonade salads with the ease of a Ritz waiter— such ease that I suspect he is often im- pressed into this line of duty at “Little Tooting.” Alfred Tennyson, grandnephew of the })oel, saw to it that ladies were com- fortably settled at small tables not too near the fire.

Answer—Anything which heats up the body and induces free perspiration tends to reduce excess flesh when prac- ticed regularly. Alternate hot and cold shower baths are good for toning the skin and also for reducing weight. But it is idle to expect satisfactory results from any mere bath, even though it may be a “reducing bath.” Scientific | dieting and exercise are necessary in | addition to any sort of reducing bath. | LOIS LEEDS.
